How can I extract a ZIP file in FileZilla

Filezilla doesn't support unzipping zipped files directly from a website's server. However you can work around the issue by downloading the relevant files from the server to your local drive and using your favorite zip utility to unzip the file.

What are the Possibilities to Unzip a zip file uploaded to a webserver

Suggestion

Step 1
Click the "Start" button, and then click "Computer" to open Windows Explorer. Navigate to the folder that contains the executable file of the tool that you use to extract ZIP files. Most applications are installed in the "Program Files" folder on the system drive by default.
Step 2
Click the "Address" field at the top of Windows Explorer to select the path to the folder that contains the executable, and then press "Ctrl-C" to copy the path to the clipboard.

Step 3
Launch FileZilla, click "Edit" and choose "Settings" from the menu.
Step 4
Click the "Filetype associations" item in the navigation pane at the left, under the File Editing node.
Step 5
Click inside the right pane to place the insertion cursor, type "zip" (without the quotes), insert a space, and then press "Ctrl-V" to insert the path to the archiving utility.
Step 6
Insert a "\" character, and then type the name of the executable file. For example, if you use WinZip to extract ZIP files, the line would look like this:
zip C:\Program Files\WinZip\WINZIP32.EXE
Step 7
Click "OK" to save the association. You can now right-click a ZIP file and select "View/Edit" from the context menu to start extracting it directly from FileZilla.
